Scope : Design & Paint Mural & Design Gawai Plates
Medium : Wall Paint, Procreate, Adobe Illustrator
Location : Jalan Wayang, Kuching, Sarawak
We are extremely proud to have worked with Darlie on their #semangattogether campaign for Gawai & Keamatan 2022.
We were selected to create artwork that represents the unity of Sarawak for the campaign. The scope was to work with Sabah's artist and create a wall mural and the 2022 Darlie plate designs with the same theme.
As proud Sarawakians, we had so much fun infusing Sarawakian cultural elements into a modern piece of art, as well as portraying the unity, harmony and strength of us riding the waves of hard times together.
Design Concept
The design shows people of Sarawak sitting on a sampan on the Sarawak River, riding the waves through COVID together. Behind are landmarks of Sarawak and Mount Santubong framed by unique flora of Sarawak. The Tree of Life and Pua Kumbu patterns are added as they are iconic ethnic designs of Sarawak.
Here are some photos below and the YouTube video that Darlie created for the campaign.

This was a really interesting read. I enjoyed how the design brings together cultural elements and meaningful symbols that reflect the spirit and heritage of the community. The details and storytelling behind the mural and plate make the project feel very authentic and thoughtful. It also shows how creative expression, much like the work done by a poem book publishing agency, can help preserve and share cultural stories in a powerful way.
Through vivid imagery and minute details, the Darlie Gawai Mural & Plate Design exquisitely captures cultural history. Seeing how tradition is brought to life via creativity is encouraging. Similar to how artists use design to tell tales, CIPD Level 3 Assignment Helper helps students formulate their thoughts in a clear and significant way for the written word.
